If anything is taken in overdose, the first thing to do is call an ambulance/take the patient to the nearest A&E.
Overdoses of opiates (which includes morphine) can cause respiratory arrest - this is where the connection between your brain and your lungs fails to tell your lungs to breath. The worst case is you can die of lack of oxygen (I'm not sure whether this would technically be called "suffocation" or "asphyxiation"). There is also a possibility of surviving with some brain damage caused by lack of oxygen.
Usually if someone is prescribed a course of iron tablets, they are a low-dose pill which is designed to be taken on a daily basis, over a substantial period of time. The alternative is a short 'course' of high-dose injections administered by a doctor.
actually there is no Morphins disease ,but there is over dose of morphine which is use for narcotic analgesic.

The Fentanyl patches by over twice the margin.120mg of oral morphine every 8 hours is equal to 360mg per day of oral morphine (24hr period). The Fentanyl patch equivalent dose (Duragesic for comparison purposes) is a single 100mcg Fentanyl patch.
Loratadine tablets USP 10 mg should be taken orally, with or without food, as directed by your healthcare provider. The typical dose for adults and children over 6 years is one tablet once daily. Avoid exceeding the recommended dosage, and consult your doctor if you have any underlying health conditions or are taking other medications. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, but skip it if it's almost time for your next dose.
It is usual to be prescribed one tablet (7.5 mg) to be taken just before going to bed. Do not take more than one dose during a single night. If you are over 65 years of age, your doctor may consider the 3.75 mg strength tablets more suitable for you
The whole point of making tablets look different is so that people can identify them.The only reason I can think of for wanting to know this is so that you can disguise morphine tablets as something else, but:It won't fool anyone who actually knows enough about drugs to realize what those blue tablets are.Anyone who doesn't know enough about drugs to recognize them on sight can be fooled by just putting them in some generic aspirin bottle.
Dt = Dose (1 + 0.693 × t/t1/2) Where, Dt = Total dose, Dose = Immediate release dose, t = Total time period for which sustained release is required, t1/2 = Half-life of drug.
Over-the-counter medications do not contain morphine sulfate, as it is a prescription-only opioid medication used for pain management. However, some over-the-counter pain relievers, like acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil), come in round tablets that may resemble morphine sulfate pills in shape but differ significantly in composition and usage. Always consult a healthcare professional for pain management options.
A time released morphine capsure will be released over a long period of time. This means it would be about the same as taking 1 mg every 45 minutes or so over a day(rough estimate). If you need a drug as strong as morphine to control your pain, time release would be a good option as you can have long lasting pain control without sufferering as much from side effects (dizziness, nausea) that you would get from taking a large dose of MS IR.
There are no know painkillers that interact with Losartan. (I currently take them with panadol and codeine).
